Are you still Crashing?

Methonius · 2013-06-18, 01:58 PM

I wanted to get this out there, just in case people had the same issue as me. After the latest update I was crashing almost every 10 minutes of gameplay. Never had the issue before. But I tried multiple things to no avail. Finally I thought maybe a driver issue. Nope still didn't work. Thought game file issue. Nope didn't work.

Nvidia Users only:

Then I realized I had personal settings set, for my Nvidia Control panel. *Facepalm* Set them to all recommended settings by Nvidia. Boom. Everything was fixed. Game does not crash for me anymore. I'm not exactly sure which settings of mine was messing with the game but I had lots of custom shit setup. Like AA turned up, and a lot of other things. Basically I set everything to let the game control it.

Let me know if anyone has a similar issue, and if this works for them.

i have been crashing, but not as much as you, but i only experienced this when i had updated to the latest Nvidia beta drivers, it has been happening a couple of GU's for me. but yeah i might give it a go. but the "recommend settings" for PS2 on Nvida experience puts everything on ultra w/physx on, but with a lower render distance *facepalm*

i think he is talking about nvidia system settings, not about nvidia experience, which sets the ps2 settings.

i was crashing a lot like op with physics on but turning it off reduced crashing to once per hour. now i resetted my nvidia 3d settings to factory default and will try if i can handle physics now.

I turned physx off and my second gpu since I started crashing every 15 or so minutes thus far I have crashed twice in a week.
PhysX has a nice memory leak I beleive other then that I am not sure why you would be crashing so often with some of the settings.

Double post fuck sake.

Just today I've started crashing every 15 minutes or so, running on AMD so sadly this doesn't help me. The servers, at least on Connery anyhow seem to be under a lot of stress today.

My game has been pretty solid - I do get the occasional CTD but it's been a while.

Methonius · 2013-06-18, 11:41 PM

So after I thought I fixed most of my crashing. I still seem to get a weird CTD when flying a aircraft for more than 15mins. Really weird. Only in ESFs it seems too. Not really sure what would cause that.

I almost never crash. Sure I only get 15-20 fps out of my rig but the game has been amazingly stable for me.

KesTro · 2013-06-19, 12:16 AM

I think I figured it out guys. After observing Exhibit A:

I have determined that the cause for the crashing is due to an abundance of ZOE vapors collecting in the air and manifesting themselves into an all powerful entity capable enough to attack enemy players.

Nerf ZOE less we be left with a grim future:

You bunch of lucky fckers. I crash more than a crash dummy.

I crash at least once a day. Tends to happen after 2+ hours

This.

The optimization passes have had such scattered results, it's just bizarre. I'm to the point that I get like 100 FPS in a field and 30-40 in a building during big fights. I haven't had 15 since GU2.

Whatever they did with their last maintenance downtime completely jacked the servers and a lot of players clients.

KesTro · 2013-06-20, 04:07 PM

I thought GU11 would fix the crashing but it's still happening. :< SOE HALP. To the official forums!
